School Beauty's Personal Martial Expert-Chapter 595: Huang Family’s Secret 3

Leng Xuan immediately burst with joy upon hearing this and asked, "Do you know how to handle this? Tell me quickly."

Long Lingzi replied irritably, "I must say, as a successor of the Defying Heaven Art, how come you don’t even know these basic things? It’s truly embarrassing to admit."

Feeling his face grow inexplicably hot at these words, Leng Xuan couldn’t be blamed, though. Although Uncle Zhang had passed on the Defying Heaven Art to him, he really hadn’t been taught any other knowledge about cultivation. Besides, he hadn’t come into contact with such matters over the years, so his knowledge was very limited. Facing Long Lingzi’s sarcasm, Leng Xuan managed an embarrassed smile and said, "Help me handle this thing for now. When we have time later, I’ll need your help to fill in the gaps in my knowledge."

After sniffing disdainfully, Long Lingzi said, "This barrier is actually for early warning, and the method used to set it up isn’t very sophisticated. Moreover, judging from the spiritual power fluctuations emitted by the barrier, the person who set it up isn’t stronger than you are. You can try to sense these spiritual power fluctuations; once you’re familiar with them, you can slightly alter your own spiritual power fluctuations to match them. By doing so, you can pass through smoothly without attracting any attention."

"Alter spiritual power fluctuations?" Leng Xuan was extremely surprised upon hearing this. He was naturally aware of spiritual power fluctuations, as every cultivator has their own unique fluctuations, which nobody else can replicate. Therefore, in the Cultivation World, spiritual power fluctuations are also a method of identifying a person’s identity. With Long Lingzi saying this, could it be that he was unaware of this principle? Hence, Leng Xuan voiced his doubts.

"You blockhead," said Long Lingzi, rather frustrated, "of course I know that spiritual power fluctuations can’t be mimicked. But you are cultivating the Defying Heaven Art, remember? What is the Defying Heaven Art? It’s a supreme cultivation technique with many unique effects. One of its effects is the ability to adjust spiritual power fluctuations."

Upon hearing this, Leng Xuan chuckled sheepishly; he really didn’t know that his Defying Heaven Art had such a peculiar ability. It seemed he had to explore and delve into it more.

Following the method taught by Long Lingzi, Leng Xuan quickly figured out the spiritual power fluctuations at the entrance. Then he wrapped his spiritual power around his body and matched it to the existing fluctuations. After completing all this, he began to slowly proceed towards the entrance.

Indeed, Leng Xuan entered the passage smoothly and, for good measure, he patiently waited for a while until he was certain that the stillness outside meant the two cultivators had not detected him.

The passage leading downwards was not very long, only about five meters, and it opened up to a long corridor at the bottom. Leng Xuan observed the surroundings and realized that the corridor was artificially excavated, complete with handrails and lighting.

After walking about ten meters along the corridor, Leng Xuan heard voices. He immediately slowed his pace and cautiously moved forward.

He advanced a few steps before reaching a turn in the corridor. Peering around the corner, Leng Xuan saw a transparent security room set up. Inside sat three men in black suits, each in front of four or five monitors, clearly monitoring something.

His heart skipped a beat at this sight, and Leng Xuan quickly turned back to check the corridor to make sure there were no cameras installed. Once he was certain that there were none, he breathed a sigh of relief. That was close! If he had been recorded, his mission would have been compromised. With this realization, he also lamented that his vigilance had decreased significantly since leaving the military—it had been a long time, and he had almost forgotten these basic precautions.
